The NZ Transport Agency is advising drivers heading south into the city on SH1 tomorrow that a new road layout will be in place at Linden along the Tawa straights to accommodate for work on the Transmission Gully project.

Two new lanes have been constructed in the central median and traffic will be moved over onto these new southbound lanes, to allow for construction of the new Collins Street overbridge.

Drivers are urged to comply with the temporary speed restrictions which will be in place, and to take extra care as everyone gets used to the new road layout.

The NZ Transport Agency works to create transport solutions for all New Zealanders – from helping new drivers earn their licences, to leading safety campaigns to investing in public transport, state highways and local roads.
